G-Core

G-Core is now up to v2! Get cool new rules like: Teamwork, where working together pays off!

What is G-Core?G-Core is a simple set of rules for use in any genre. Spawned and updated for the modern gamer, G-Core roots come from the original MarvelTM Superheroes Role-Playing Game or more famously known as FASERIP. This ISN'T the original FASERIP nor is it a product of Marvel Comics, but it is 99% compatible with it.

Things we've updated

-Talents have now become Special Focus--Special Focus makes more out of a character's specialities-Instead of Fighting, Agility, Strength, Endurance, Reason, Intuition, and Psyche we now have: Rumble, Agility, Might, Moxie, Smarts, Perception and Spirit.-The tables are gone! After play testing using a simple ten-sided die, we found a better way to make resolutions! By doing this it became MUCH more comic book than the previous incarnation. -Character Generation has moved into a Point Based creation. It is mapped out to avoid confusion. Creation takes around 10 to 15 minutes for adults. 15 to 30 minutes for younger children. The process, however, is always kept exciting.

I picked this up as a means to update and expand my old favourite "FASERIP" system.
This is a useful and fun product that can be easily integrated into the 'old school' game
to add some new life to a much loved system I've played for many, ma [...]

For the small price of G-Core you get a lot of bang for your buck. I'm an old Marvel Superheroes FASERIP system player and GM, so I was really happy to see DGBG come out with this nice rules-lite system. It really is true that you can convert the old [...]

on the plus side it is cheap... on the negative side 'you get what you pay for' which in this case is very much on the 'homebrew system that looks a lot like the others'. I'll admit to having a preference for simple systems so as soon as I find [...]

Don't be fooled by the affordable prices of the Dilly Green Bean Games because for less than the price of lunch you can get a solid Super Hero RPG system along with plenty of Add-Ons that give you plenty cool stuff.
The G-Core book alone has had me ent [...]

These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format

These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
